1st Course
Risotto Balls
Marinara
Wine-Tiamo Organic Prosecco DOC Veneto
“Tiamo Prosecco has a green straw color and charming aromas of apples and pears and gardenia flowers. On the palate is it bright, fresh and fruity with fine bubbles. It pairs well with lighter cuisine food, especially fish/shellfish and softer cheeses. It’s an ideal aperitif and with any appetizer. It is also an excellent base for cocktails—such as the Bellini or Mimosa.”
2nd Course
Lasagna Bolognese
Wine-Ca’ Momi Rosso Napa Valley
Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Merlot, Petit Syrah
“This freestyle red blend rocks its own style without pretension or snobbishness. Aromas of ripe blueberries, subtle campfire smoke, and that blackberry patch down the road put summer vacation in your glass. Intense plum, blackberry pie, and toasty spice mingle on the palate, with moderate tannins providing structure through the finish.”
Entrée
Chicken Parmigiana with Roasted Cherry Tomatoes
Wine-Stolpman Sangiovese, Central Coast
“Firm cherry fruit rides above an intense flow of heady richness. The pretty red fruit delves deep into lusher, darker notes of anise, pine, menthol and vanilla.”
Dessert
Sicilian Cannoli
